Governance

The Association and the sport of shinty are governed by the Memorandum of Association, the Articles of Association, which are combined in the Memorandum of Association & Articles of Association, and the Byelaws. These documents set out all the rules relating to the Association and the sport of shinty, including the Rules of Play. As a company limited by guarantee, the Association is also governed by relevant company legislation.

The Objectives of the Camanachd Association are set out in Article 3 of the Memorandum of Association. The main two of these, so far as the playing of shinty is concerned, are:

to foster, encourage, promote and develop the Sport and to uphold the Rules of Play for Shinty

to govern competitions and activities in connection with the Sport.

The Association develops a strategic plan every three years which sets out how it will achieve these objectives and how shinty will be fostered, encouraged, promoted and developed.
